Child labour is one of the curses of our so called civilised society. Children who suppose to have dream in their eyes and books in their hands are working in our houses and in different factories. They are deprived of all kinds of privileges which a child should have.

The children who are working in houses are the most vulnerable. Freedom is a word which is still unknown to them. Very often they are facing sexual harassment. Bangladesh, though a signatory country of CRC, has not yet taken enough steps to prevent this kind of child abuse .The government of Bangladesh should pay heed to this matter since children are the future of our country.
